Join a school club or activity that you enjoy. You will meet other kids your own age that enjoy the same activity. Never hesitate to be the first to smile and speak. Be the first to extend the hand of friendship and eventually it will come back to you.
Most people have a lot of acquaintances but not a lot of close friends. During high school it's natural to feel isolated and alone if you aren't constantly surrounded by a lot of 'friends'. The truth is very few of the crowd around some one is a true friend. Try to remember it's not the quantity of friends you have but the quality of friendships you develop that is most important. A true friend in high school may still be a true friend 30 years down the road and you will forgotten even the names of all the acquaintances you have made.

Some people have natural gifts for athletics, art, or music, and some have a natural gift for socialization. We all can't expect to have every natural ability out of the gate. Sometime folks like us need to learn skills that others may have instinctively. What you can do is identify and cultivate your natural abilities what ever they may be. This will help you build the requisite self-confidence that others will then naturally gravitate towards (Do you remember the movie Field of Dreams? "If you build it, they will come"). Furthermore, If you feel that your gifts are more intellectual, it wouldn't hurt to apply your intellect to the problem. Ask yourself, what works and what, specifically, does NOT work. What every you do, don't pursue socialization for its own sake and not before you feel ready. Teens, especially, have a way of taking advantage of people who may be vulnerable. Good Luck.

In high school i thought i had a whole lot of friends then i realized when things got rough and i didn't want to drink or do drugs anymore that i only had one friend out of the bunch.How crazy is that and then we stopped being friends then i found some new friends same thing happened had only one friend again and now i have none.It's like my life just keeps on repeating itself what to do i don't know but if you want you can email me and we can talk about our problems and things like that.

I never had many fiends in middle school, and was pretty badly bullied in middle school, so I dropped out and got my GED, so being in high school was out. But, I can tell you this much, people are still defining themselves at that age and are trying to figure out where they belong. Find people who you feel comfortable with. Perhaps join an activity or club you seek interest in and seek out friends that way. Don't try to fit in because you think you have to or because others are doing so, that won't get you anywhere. Let you brother laugh, because in the end, he'll have nobody.
I wish you the best of the best in your days of school endings.
J.F.
P.S. Don't feel to bad, many people don't even really stick with their friends after high school.
